What to Wear to a Mavs Game, St. Patrick's Day Edition

The Mavericks are fresh off a big win over Oklahoma City Sunday night. YES, the Thunder was without three starters, including Russell Westbrook. I don't care. Dallas ended an 11-game losing streak to Kevin Durant and company but there's no time to revel in that victory. The Mavs are back at the AAC Monday to host the Celtics which presents.....a fashion conundrum.

Think about it: It's St. Patricks Day. The day we are supposed to wear green. The Celtics are THE team that was founded on the luck of the Irish! When you think of them, you envision their green uniforms, the clover and leprechaun.

So what should the St. Patrick's Day-loving Mavs fan wear to a game like this one? My daughter and I are actually going to the game. I think this is a great night to break out a Mavericks t-shirt. The good thing is that there are cute options for even the most sartorial Mavs fan.

The Mavericks have won six of their last seven games against the Celtics, as well as the last three at the American Airlines Center.

Dirk Nowitzki plays really well against Boston, averaging 26.5 points per game in 28 starts against the Celtics. That is his highest scoring average against any opponent.

Boston is terrible with a 22-45 record this season, 8-24 on the road. The Celtics have lost four in a row, including an overtime loss to New Orleans on Sunday.

Dallas is 40-27, 21-10 at home. The Mavericks are currently 7th in the Western Conference, a half-game ahead of Memphis and just a game and a half ahead of 9th place Phoenix. Meaning with 15 games left in the season, every game counts.
